RIP Laptop

Yesterday the old faithful died. It didn't actually died die, I got virus through FireFox add-ons, the yahoo one and have to reformat but the laptop it got so hot in the middle of reinstallation that it shutdown by itself. I'll have to let it cool and put a fan on Hi towards it. Then I tried to do the reinstallation again and this went on for hrs. After 5 hrs and going nowhere, I have to declare it dead. I was already planning on an Macbook for Christmas and I'll wait till Christmas or at least November and try to live without laptop for a while. I am already feeling technology withdrawal what but heck, I can't cough up the dough and that's the price I have pay. Right now I am using my work laptop so I am not completely lost. Besides, MacBook's configuration is due for an update and looking at the trend for the past few years, it should be close now. So I am hanging in there and waiting patiently.
